Hello Everyone,
My name is Carlos.
I've been trading for about 2 years.
Tried all sorts of methadologies; elliot wave, breakouts, tech analysis, and trend analysis.
I like guitar and karate.
My goal is to make better trades and stay away from the bad ones.

Let me be the first to welcome you to the PFA Family Carlos. Once you have a full understanding of Supply/Demand you should never need to look for another methodology again. Good luck and have fun learning. You are now part of a great community.

Welcome Carlos! I also tried several methodologies, I used to populate my charts with lagging indicators. I tried evereything. At the end, I was looking for crazy harmonic patterns with super complicated ratios, I was going nuts. But then I found the right place for me. I’m sure your going to feel the same soon!

Carlos, your in the right place man. Will is a great teacher and the software is nothing short of groundbreaking. Watch as many of the old videos as you can and attend the live classes. Post any questions and chart images you need a hand with here in the forum there are a handful of traders both new and old that will give you a hand here. Welcome, buddy! B

Carlos, Sorry for the belated reply to your intro! I actually thought i had already done this when i noticed your post the other day.
Welcome to PFA my friend!!! I first found out about trading 10 years ago...lost for many years, knew there was something to it all i was missing (Supply and Demand trading)
I went from over-loading charts with indicators to trading naked charts which helped me start to notice the S/D patterns but still unable to make it all work together and find a working method for myself to follow. So i got really good at manually seeing supply and demand zones but didnt have the other clues that i eventually learned here from Will at PFA how to put it all together with altitude, direction, and location. So WHAT ZONES TO TAKE not just that there are zones all over the place. It was a blessing that my father actually found out PFA first and told me about it so eventually I joined up almost a year ago last spring 2018 to seek the help i wish i had way sooner to get the final pieces to the puzzle. We are all on our own time and rather an individual figures it out and is making money in 2 years or it takes em 20 years, they are both a success in my mind.

Will is an amazing person, caring and extremely patient with his entire community and giving help when asked, just cant be afraid to ask, his software development is nothing short of a miracle and cant wait for the newest release he's been working so hard to get out to us soon. Thank You again Will!!!
Carlos, get (and stay) active in our community and with diligence you will learn the PFA methodology rather quickly as the trade plan is all laid out step by step in several places, as Will states many times, "trading is simple" and i 100% agree with his comment and im sure many traders would agree with this next part: Its overcoming our-self that will be the biggest struggle, our very own psychological defects that prevent us from having patience and clear view in life which rolls over to making the best trading decisions.

I cant speak about everyone but throughout my life thus far, hard to face the truth sometimes but Id by lying if I said I haven't developed a handful bad habits, wrong views, addictions and wasteful desires among other limiting factors that diminish the ability to trade at full potential and I know that once myself and every other being in the cosmos destroys all those egos/defects we carry inside, the results for everyone who puts in that hard work will be phenomenal as lightning. Lets all be a team and work together 2019... make great like-minded friends.. ill try my best to get out on the forum more myself. Cheers and sorry for rambling on here but hope someone get a little nugget of inspiration or knowledge from this post. Have a great weekend and looking forward to next week with all of you.

Totally agree BillPrivate, and Travis you've already succeeded because I got a lot out of your post. Honestly it is always a benefit to us all hearing from others, it can really help us resonate with people such as ourselves. I can't speak for anyone, but I would venture to say we've all struggled with the same emotions and now we don't have to do that alone. Thank you!

Travis, thank you for sharing and for the warm welcoming for Carlos. He’s really having a good idea of how great this community can be.

I also wanted to say that I can’t agree more with you about how hard is to overcome our own fears and bad habits. That’s the hardest part.

Most of the days I follow my rules but the days I break them, the day I over trade or I get emotional or I tend to move my stops too fast or too late, my goodness... I can be like Dr. Jekyll.

I’m not the right person to give advices about this because I feel specially frustrated today but this is something I say to myself:

Set your targets looking at your charts, not your dreams. Set your stops using your levels, not your fears.

I hope we all have a great year and leave all the bad habits behind. We have a winner methodology, the best software, an amazing mentor and an incredible community we can rely on. It’s on us to take advantage of it.

Most has already been said, but I was pretty much in the same boat as you (and most others haha). Tried it all but something was missing, finally found Will and PFA last year. Hopefully 2019 will be my year but I'm not suffering. This community makes the ride to our goals incredible

I just wanted to thank you all again and am starting to feel like this is going to be a great experience.
I believe this is going to be it. I mean it feels like home here. Finally the long search for a methodology of trading has come to an end.
I also want to thank my dad for being there and providing for the long haul that it has been. Travis we are very lucky that our dads are there for us, hats off to you my friend.
These are my goals for 2019 and beyond:

1. I want to follow rules so from now on I am not going to trade on my own instinct anymore like I used to and I am only trading with the software.
2. I am not trading unless a zone calls for it.
3. I hope we will get automation trading because that is how much I believe in the software, not because I'm lazy but it just makes life easier and removes emotions.
4. I also want to be in tune with the trend, since going against the tide is not a good thing.
5. Oh yeah, I never want to buy a top ever again nor sell a bottom for as long as I live, I hope.

That is what I hope to accomplish and if anybody has anymore advice for me or wants my help, I'm happy to hear you out and happy to help if you need, honestly.
Thanks everyone for your support and I consider all of you my friends
